I'm no fan of the duo, most of their music was shit, but that song surprised me.  I don't give a flip about scootin' boots or whatever.

LOL.  Not going to Dessau Hall this weekend?

I shudder to ask what's going on?  But no.

Yeah, that place has been shuttered for a while.  Honestly, I did all that stuff when I was in a fraternity because I guess that's what you're supposed to do but, yeah, not really me.

Anyway, if you go to the Austin Music Awards on Sunday, I owe you a beer.

Looks like they'll be part of Levitation

@jimmyjazz finally had a chance to watch The Point really cook last night... can't remember the guitar player's name but I like his approach to playing.  Good stuff.  Nico killed it on drums, especially playing with Beto.

levitation was moved to september. i think this may be a psych fest fall edition or something though. hopefully not at the fucking far out lounge.

I personally like the place.  Have no problem seeing shows there.  What would be a better alternative for that size show?

Wanted to buy tickets for Father John Misty in Santa Fe for this summer but it's one of those venues where there's no way to resell tickets if we can't make it work. Wasn't ready to commit at this point.

Same. My wife wasn't overly interested in seeing BoH just seven days later after Friday's show even though they'll be headlining this one. (Me, personally, if I love a band I'll see them on consecutive nights if possible.) But she's been wanting to go to Echo Lounge to check it out. Once she heard this show was there, she was all over it.

Snagged some Luck tickets last night. My mom has been dropping hints she wants to go for years and finally just told me straight out that she wanted me to take her next time I go, which is much more direct than she ever is. Guess it’s going to be me and mom next week.

I think I have missed one (nonCOVID) year since 2016. Always love it.

That's awesome. 

My exposure to Willie came from my parents.  First concert I attended was a Willie concert at the Austin Opera House circa 1982. 

My wife and I will be out there again this year.  If I run into you, I'll buy you a drink.

Saw Ty Segall & King Tuff acoustic show.  Really intimate and cool.  Ty was working the merch table.  Said he and Kyle (King Tuff) hand drew the posters themselves.  Was very personable and chatted with everybody that came by.  

Got free tickets to see Orions Belte a couple of days later.  They are a Norwegian band that is hard to put a label on - psych jazz?  Really interesting and groovy.

On the 4th of March I went to see MarchFourth.  Imagine the lovechild of a marching band and Cirque du Soleil.  It was fun as hell.  Everyone in the venue was dressed up in costume but I got the most attention because I was in full Devo jumpsuit and powerdome.  Always a party when I wear it.

This saturday I'm going to see The Macks.  Local Portland band but they kill it.  Saw them open for Wine Lips last year - also in my Powerdome.

There are some pictures up thread somewhere.  Nuge knows how to party like its 1979.

skloss and the well at 29th street ballroom. skloss is a husband and wife duo that plays heavy, atmospheric psych rock. they were really good. the well crushed it with the stoner riffs, as always. glad this venue is hosting concerts again, it's nice to have an option that's not in the middle of downtown.

Saw them last night in OKC for the first time, it was great. They are clearly having a blast, which means it’s easy for the audience to as well.

They came through Austin a handful of times during the mid-late 2000s and were a fucking blast- loved seeing them.
